So you thought those alloys were dirty then take a look at mine. At Kishangarh pit stop 2/3rds of the way down from BOM to DEL last week and carrying a lot of the rain related muck from the West to the North

The Blue Streak actually looked quite dashing with all of the accumulated muck, should play in the dirt more often

These rally bred cars loves to get dirty all the time

Planet Rocker echoes my sentiments!

Your Cedia looks the part, Khoj. It may look stock, but some knobby tyres would have made this Cedia look straight out of a Rally. You must, and should, keep it dirty at all times!

Could you please throw some light on the make, size and the price of these Alloys. I tried searching this huge thread but was not successful.
Mods,
Sorry of the repeated posts as I could not edit my previous post

Black chrome looks great !
Please give an idea how to get the black chrome done .
Cheers !

From what i heard they spray a very glossy black paint on it, and then they spray alot of layers of clear coat. The gloss black paint is slighty mixed with chromish silverish paint.

No offense but these wheels will be very big for a fusion bro. They are asa GT1's. 19x8.5 slightly stretched on a 235/35/19 michelin pilots all season tires.

hey thanks man i appreciate it. They were gunmetal before if you look in my previous thread but i got bored so i got it painted to kinda give it a murdered out look. Plus my tints are jet black 0% and i have put black vinyl on my roof so these wheels in this color compliments it well.

I recently changed the rims on my Punto.
I purchased a set of used Linea rims and got them custom painted.
The idea came from a fellow BHPian Ravveendrra. He has done a similar theme on his yellow Palio.
Thanks for your inputs.
Here are the pictures.
